Hiring tips

How to hire skilled trades workers in Detroit

  • Post the pay. Trades workers compare offers closely. Show the hourly range and whether overtime, benefits and tools are included.
  • Be clear about licenses. Say whether you need a Michigan journeyman license, apprentice registration, EPA 608 or a weld certification, or whether you will train.
  • Hire for potential. Registered apprenticeships let you train your own workers. Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity helps employers build them.
  • Look for training funds. Michigan's Going PRO Talent Fund makes awards to employers to train, develop and keep current and newly hired employees.
  • Show up where people train. Students read our trade school and apprenticeship guides before they pick a path.
  • Move fast. Reply to applicants quickly and make the first step simple.
Work with training partners

Build your pipeline with the Detroit Workforce Alliance

The Detroit Workforce Alliance brings schools, employers and community groups together so more Detroiters get trained and hired. Employers can join as partners alongside schools and community groups and help shape a stronger trades pipeline. Schools and training providers have their own plans on the schools page.
